lyrics

Dawn takes shape
Like a glass breaking
In reverse
Slow motion

This rebirth
A suggestion of
Approaching withdrawal

Cobalt paled
Ashes liquefied
In gilded streams
Like a comet’s tail

There’s no pain
Save what’s left behind
When your advance is come

And it may take a while for us
To recognise this
It may take some time for us
Just to define this

Disengage
Blessed escape (/Emancipate?)
Intertwined
By paradoxes as

Beams from an orbital
Sympathetically extinguish
Acquiesce before the rain of angelfire
To be chronicled forever



















Dusk cascades
Shards of glass are paced
With crimson streams
Flowing into sores

Razor’s edge
Of my comfort is
A velvet counterpane

It has taken time from us
We’d otherwise revive
In an instant, time is done
And you desist

Moments dried
Metastasize
Much as I
Try to remember that

This is the only plain
In which time exists
By definition a suffering that I
Cannot comprehend

I move so fast that I’m
Approaching motionlessness
